It's not the real result that counts, folks, it's the officially announced result. The official announced result (after all the blah-blah and mutual hatred) decides an election. It'll be interesting to see what the powers that be decide to make the official result this time. Whichever way they decide, many people on the losing side will cry "fraud!", and the chances are quite good that they will be right about that...regardless who "wins". They'll also cry "disaster!" They have to in order to justify maintaining their accustomed state of partisan hatred for another 4 years.

You can't govern a nation sensibly or reasonably, given such an attitude. It's simply not possible.
